Problem
The advanced management module event
log displays I-error messages for one of the Opteron-based blade servers.
Investigation
Perform these steps to resolve the
problem:
- For the I-error message, look at the message text:
E BLADE_07 08/24/06, 17:38:25 (id14c2n07) Memory disabled: DIMM number 2
E BLADE_07 08/24/06, 17:38:25 (id14c2n07) Memory disabled: DIMM number 1
- Check to see if any of the Light Path diagnostic LEDs on the blade server
are lit. See Module LEDs.
- If the problem is associated with the memory DIMMs, the failing memory
banks on the blade server are disabled. If either of the LEDs for the blade
server memory DIMMs are lit:
- Replace both memory DIMMs.
- Press F1 while restarting the blade server to bring
up the POST BIOS CMOS settings.
- Re-enable the disabled memory bank.
